i40e_config...i_and_legacy(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 NAME 💖

okay so this page is i40e_config...i_and_legacy(9) — yes the title is literally truncated with dots, that's not a typo bestie, that's just how it is 💀 — and it lives in the Kernel API Manual, section 9. The function it's hyping up is i40e_configure_msi_and_legacy, and what it does is: legacy mode interrupt config in the HW. That's it. That's the whole job. Iconic, lowkey.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void i40e_configure_msi_and_legacy (struct i40e_vsi *vsi );
Not me pointing out that it returns void — nothing comes back, no return value, no drama. 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • vsi — the VSI being configured. That's the one and only thing you hand it, bestie. The VSI. The Virtual Station Interface. That's the whole guest list. 💅

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay so first off, the kernel file where this lives, no cap:

./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_main.c

and then… the cross-references. and I mean all of them. like the whole friend group showed up. 🎀

that's genuinely every single one, bestie. no crumbs left behind. 🫶✨

and that's the whole page!! it came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e, dated October 2026 — so go configure those legacy-mode interrupts, queen, the kernel believes in you 💜🎀🦋
